      1. This is mario in his pussy form, he is no longer a man, when he is not having to rescue peach, he is a pussy in his spare time.

    1. Flint, they already did that in in SMB2, same with Toad, if you can play as Toad and Peach again, then it might be like SMB2, Wart might even make a comeback, as well as the dream-land of Sub-con (or something like that.)

      1. The troll to end all trolls

        That wouldn’t be a good idea. I would get even angrier! STOP TRYING TO BE RETRO NINTENDO!!!!! It was cool when you did it with the Wii…… For like…. A YEAR. Then it started to piss me (and many others) off. Make some new ideas. Make it more complex. You have the ability to do it. DO IT!

  1. I can’t even watch the Nintendo Direct because it keeps saying INVALID ADDRESS every time I click the link. It won’t play for nothing. All this wait for no reason. I should have stayed in bed.

      1. i love nintendo but i mean what where they thinking? i heard it was suppose to be something huge, something we had never seen. i have seen it, its on the 3ds. you cant give us masterpieces like mario galaxy and then give us this.

        1. This doesn’t seem to be nearly on the same level as 64, Sunshine and Galaxy :(
          Extremely disappointed. Was really looking forward to this game because of the freedom it would give. What do they do? YES! LET’S MAKE IT LINEAR AS FUCK! That’s a great idea -__-*!…

  2. will lack online multiplayer, will lack a story and level editors

    FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL WIUU ABANDONED CONSOLE

  3. This was the only game that impressed me honestly. Well I guess Smash Bros. in cel-shade for 3DS was interesting and Mega Man but really it was an awful direct. Nintendo really screwed up.

    1. yes…… agree. really im kinda done with nintendo. it kinda sucks because they were so good and now its just gimicks and the games are not very cool anymore, everything to no 3rd party and horrible localizations. even that x game, the only real big thing and it looks like its not even anything but going around in fucking robots, does it even have a story, is it even anything like xenoblade was besides of the world being big?????? it sounded to me like all it was is going around in a huge world flying in robots and shit.

  4. Is this a joke?

    This isn’t even a 3D Mario….and it sure as hell isn’t an improvement on Galaxy.

    1. yeah man, im really disappointed with nintendo……. really im not being stupid this time or anything, not joking, but the looks of it….. i really dont care about nintendo anymore. this kinda sucks, they had a system out for a year in november and all the games besides the mario one and hd remake of windwaker are basically coming out.

      1. You’re right about this game… It looks VERY stupid. Why do I want to be a fucking cat? They could have done something so much BETTER than this shit.

  5. I wanted a game like the real 3d Mario. 64 sunshine and galaxy. this game is like an expansion of 3d land. that game is amazing but on a small portable console! I wanted an open world adventure not a 3d version of nsmb. I don’t think ill give Nintendo my money for this game. they should have made this instead of nsmbu and still given us a true 3d Mario game.

    1. yeah…. this is disappointing like the whole direct. nintendo isnt great anymore. the wii ruined them. they wont even bring the great games over anyway like with the wii, wont even pick up a great game like eternal sarkness successor. im done

      1. I think maybe a leadership change is needed. I love iwatta but after wii u I think he should step down from some of his duty’s. and let someone new and fresh take over. Nintendo need new everything. new image, new games and new ips. Nintendo have never been so repetitive before. each Mario game until the nsmb games were all unique. now even Mario kart is looking tired.

        1. yeah i know…. pathetically i was looking forward to that yoshi tarn game because it looks defferent but not shown and that x game…… is it just a huge shitty sandbox game and not an rpg like xonoblade.

        2. Seconded: Iwata needs to STEP. THE FUCK. DOWN.

          A hubless, linear “3D Mario” is not a 3D Mario at all. You’d almost think it makes sense to expect that the company who is responsible for those legendary fantastic games would understand this – but apparently – they don’t.

          :(
          :(

          WHERE MY HUBS AT NINTY?! Geez…

  6. I really don’t like the art style. It seems so redundant. Super Mario 1, 2, 3, World, Yoshi’s Island, etc. They never repeated themselves. I’m getting sick of the same look at feel for every Mario game.

  7. Am I the only one that thinks that this will be to Super Mario Bros. 2 as 3D Land was to Super Mario 3?

    1. Looks that way.. they show the characters throwing items like in Mario 2, and they also gave the characters all their original abilities, including jumping height and running speed (although Toad now jumps as high as Mario, probably because there is no “charge jumping” and didn’t want to make low platforms only for Toad etc)

  8. I am not understand why people are “disapointed” its a great game from what it looks like. I like the fact that the charaters have different abilities like in SB2, different set up than the last two installments for WII and WII U. Its called Super Mario 3D, its based of the the 3DS system game. This was not news people, what were you expecting? I think people create false expectations just to bitch.

    I will say the fact that Mario Kart is not going to be released until 2014 is a dissapointment. I would assume that Nintendo would have pushed this game to come out sooner. If anything Mario Kart is the game everyone is excited about. It’s been over 5 years since the last and that was one of the Biggest Games of all time for Nintendo.

    1. I’m pretty sure Nintendo did tell people this was another 3D Mario game as the “main” series, like Galaxy, Mario 64, etc.. And people thought they were going to have another one like them, at least to Galaxy. So that’s why many got disappointed I think. This is great as a sequel for Mario 3D Land but it’s not so great that this was the first “3D” Wii U game for Mario for the main series or worse “direction”.

      I might get this game but I will never view this as the real 3D Mario main series like Mario 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy.. xD It’s pretty much Mario 3D land that was very restricted and “level” like sort of like NSMB..

  10. from sm64 to sunshine to galaxy to this, they are nsmb’ing the shit out of every mario =/
    It’ll be fun probably but its just not on par with the “3d-mario’s”.

  11. After the grandiose epicness that were the two Galaxy games, this seems BIG step backwards; it’s just NSMB with 3D Land’s style of semi-3D levels; no innovation here.
    Unless you’re telling me that the cat suit and Peach not being kidnapped is the big innovation here.

  12. Doesn’t look that bad. I like the multiplayer and the unique abilities of each characters. I just hope the levels are much longer than 3D Land.

  13. The troll to end all trolls

    REALLY creative Nintendo. Just take Super Mario 3D Land, a game that’s good for like a month and then gets boring and repetitive……. And FREAKING SWITCH THE WORDS “Land” with “World” and use the same boring concept AND OMG YOU GOT A BRAND NEW GAME. WHERE IS SUPER MARIO UNIVERSE?????? WHERE????? YOU COULD HAVE DONE SO MUCH MORE!!!! WHAT A STEAMING PILE OF CRAP. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED. NOT BUYING THIS.

  14. Is this game going to be fun? Yes, most definitely.
    Is it going to be worth the (assumed) price tag of 60$? Errm..not so much.

  15. Still looks pretty neat even though its a rehash,but thats what the big n does best. That cat suit does look lame though. Now it would be neat if peach and the others were playable ,not just in multiplayer

  16. Man, the Nintendo haters are out in force!! I think 3D World looks like a blast, it’s called FUN people, anybody remember FUN? Nintendo remembers fun, heck they ARE fun! Many people are just so jaded these days they can’t see how amazing these new games are. I’d say WiiU will have the best games come the holiday season, there’s no comparison between fun Nintendo games and the ever tiring manshoot genre that will dominate the PS4 and Xbox One.

    Good job Nintendo, now just make sure there’s no delays. Also, get Hotline Miami 2 on there!!

    1. Honestly, while I consider myself one of the biggest Nintendo fans out there, this is likely going to be the first 3D Mario platformer that I have to pass on.

      Game looks like crap. Thank goodness for the other games though.

  17. This is what I would label an “An thing Game”, meaning theres no real direction, just a lot of stuff just thrown together. Have to say Mario Galaxy looked better.

  18. This Mario game looks pretty great, but also pretty generic. It looks a lot like the 3DS one. Ah well, no matter. I’ll still be picking this one up for the Wii U!

  19. Looks like fun and I’ll get it because I loved ‘3D Land’ but it’s definitely not what I was expecting or hoping for from them especially after the amazing ‘Galaxy’ series which are absolute my favorite Mario games. I have a strong feeling though that they’re just releasing this to hold us off until the REAL 3D mario game comes out.

  20. Seriously, how exactly is this that different from Super Mario Galaxy? Because there are individual levels with flagpoles instead of slightly larger levels with multiple stars?
    It’s EXACTLY the same formula, it is Mario platforming, the graphics and gameplay are made pretty much in the same style as Galaxy, just as 3D Land’s were, but in HD, the only thing really missing would be the gravity mechanic and space backgrounds (Which is really the only thing that gave a unique feel to Galaxy’s art style, which still consistent mostly of very basic blocks and materials), everything else is virtually Super Mario Galaxy, you have your 3D movement, your occasional 2D platforming, your old and new enemies, power ups, bosses, landscapes, etc, seriously, just because it isn’t throwing in a space gimmick and having you to go to the same level four-six times it doesn’t mean that the game is not gonna be rich on content, and the story is obviously gonna be different, haven’t you been bitching that Peach is just too ineffectual? Well, the bitch is throwing fire now, so she’s not the damsel in distress any more, she’s an actual character, we’ll be getting a neat story, you’ll see.
    I also didn’t know what to feel when I saw this, but then I understood all of this, I looked at Galaxy, stripping it of all the hype and understood it for what it is, and this seriously isn’t that far from it, it just does away with the space theme, everything else is left untouched, and in change we’re given new mechanics like the cat suit and the 3D multiplayer.
    Don’t be so reticent to change people, everything evolves, Mario is still doing his thing, he just changed the THEME again, like Sunshine (Isle) and Galaxy (Space) once did, it is fine, you’re gonna love it, and in six years, when the next Mario comes, I’ll be hearing you say “This is shit, I wanted 3D Land 3”, after all, that’s what all of you did to Sunshine.

    1. no, this is bullshit, nintendo ran out of ideas, and brought 3D land to the big console, and changed the title to 3D world. Oh, and they wanted to give mario a girly side.

  21. I really like that they took this approach. Its really about making the game fun, and this game looks very much so. I the middle of all this complaints, I applaud Nintendo that know how to make things fun, instead of just making flashy garbage, like everyone else.

  23. What a freaking disappointment. Why have all Mario platformers sucked after the Galaxy games?

    Guess Nintendo has run out of ideas. Thank goodness the other Wii U games look good.

  26. Wtf this isn’t a 3d Mario platform what happened to exploring and not being linear, these Mario games are geting more linear every generation I wanted a true 3D platform not a super Mario bros 3D these games should be a new type a game not a 3D platform Mario like 64 and sunshine, Mario galaxy was not a full 3D platform ether but at less you could control your camera and it was a single player with stars instead of pulls
